Terror Attack in Istanbul

Interestingly, Mr. Putin made a step forward and “forgave” Turkey after its President apologized.

Hmmm…

This BBC news article has a good diagram of the airport, showing where the 3 bombs exploded.

Probably not significantly, since there is enough opposition to Turkey joining the EU from existing EU members that it is unlikely to happen in the near future. I.e. the chance of it happening cannot get much lower than the existing extremely low chance.

My son was supposed to fly to Istanbul yesterday for a meeting, but it was cancelled. I’m supposed to go to Turkey in a couple of weeks; not cancelling yet.

An update from BBC:

The terrorists were from the former USSR territories.
